Fic Talk > General Discussion
Ugh... Great minds thinking alike in the fan fic world

I will always prefer angst to fluff. I got crap from my readers too, but at the same time, it did keep them coming back for more. (Well, most of them.) The thing is, I didn't purposely do that just to keep the readers' interest... it was more to keep MY interest. Because like I said, I prefer drama to fluff. I had fun with the fluffy scenes that are in BMS, but when it came time to break up Nick and Claire, I was SO ready to do it! And then, of course, I was ready to get them back together way before I actually could, but if I had tried to write another story with them together the whole way through, I would have just gotten bored again. And I would have come up with more sources of external conflict, most likely resulting in physical pain for one or both of them, because that's just what I do LOL. But it was so overdone in those stories already that I knew I just needed to STOP. I have a whole plot outline for a third story written out, after getting some ideas from readers, but it's so over the top that I kinda always knew I would never write it.

LOL, I try NOT to end my stories with sunshine and daises... I am so anti happy endings I'd throw everyone for a loop if something did end happy. And yes I HAVE written a happy ending.

Well my happy endings to me are the ones that end sickly sweet. I don't mind endings where everyone is not dead and things work out, but maybe not in a way they wanted. I suppose... *tries very hard not to shrug*
